- This International Search Report has been prepared by this International Searching Authority and is transmitted to the applicant according to Article 18. A copy is being transmitted to the International Bureau.
- This International Search Report consists of a total of. . sheets.
- the invention relates to a method of joining expandable tubulars .
- Expandable tubulars are increasingly used in oil and gas production wells and may comprise slots or other perforations which are widened as a result of the expansion or may have a continuous ⁇ un-slotted' wall which is circumferentially stretched by an expansion device such as an expansion cone and/or a set of rollers. Expandable tubulars are generally joined by mechanical connectors since welding may create at least some strengthening and/or weakening of the pipe wall in the region of the weld, and strengthening will hamper or even disrupt the expansion process whereas weakening will result in a tube which will easily collapse, buckle and/or burst in the welding zone.
- slotted expandable tubulars are difficult to 'seal completely to allow flushing with non-oxidising or reducing gases or gas mixtures and removal of air.
- the end of unprepared slotted liners will also cause the slots at the end of the tubular to be welded also. This impedes expansion and prevents proper functioning of the slotted expandable tubular.
- WO 023G611 "co connect expandable tubulars by 1 . ⁇ -oc welding.
- connection techniques are time consuming and require a very precise positioning of the pipe ends relative to each other and machining the pipe ends into an extremely accurate flat shape that these technologies are not practical for use on for example a drilling rig, an offshore oil platform or pipe laying vessel.
- the method according to the invention comprises joining the tubulars by forge welding whilst flushing a reducing flushing gas around the heated tubular ends during at least part of the forge welding operation such that oxides are removed from the region of the forge welded tubular ends and the amount of irregularities between the forge welded tubular ends is limited, whereupon the thus joined tubulars are radially expanded.
- the tubulars may comprise slots and/or other perforations at or near the forge welded ends, which slots and/or other perforations are filled with a heat resistant filler during the forge welding process.
- the tubular ends are heated by passing a high frequency current in circumferential direction through the tubular walls near the tubular ends that are to be joined, and the heat resistant filler comprises an - 3 - electrically conductive ceramic material.
- the heat resistant filler comprises an - 3 - electrically conductive ceramic material.
- the tubular ends that are to be joined may both be expanded and folded into a substantially similar dented or corrugated shape before the forge welding operation, whereupon the dented or corrugated tubular ends are forge welded together and are unfolded into a substantially cylindrical shape during the subsequent tube expansion process.
- the tubulars may have an un- slotted, substantially continuous, wall in the region of the welded ends and comprise an array of staggered slots and/or other perforations away of the welded ends, such that when the tube is expanded the welded initially dented or corrugated tubular ends unfold to a substantially cylindrical shape and the slots and/or other perforations are widened
- the tubulars may be joined e.g.
- tubular ends are heated to a forge welding temperature and pressed together whilst a reducing flushing gas is flushed around the heated tubular ends during at least part of the forge welding operation.
- ends of the tubulars may at least partly overlap each other and a forge welding, device is inserted into the inner tubular which heats up the tubular end, flushes a reducing flushing gas into any gap remaining between the overlapping tubular ends and which subsequently presses the outer surface of the heated end of the inner tubular against the inner surface of the outer tubular to join said tubular ends by forge welding.
- the tubular ends are teethed or have a complementary sinusoidal shape in order to alleviate forces to the forge welded tubular ends during the expansion and/or unfolding process.
- the flushing gas is a non- explosive mixture of a substantially inert gas and a reducing gas, which mixture may comprise more than 90% by volume of a substantially inert gas, such as nitrogen, helium or argon and more than 2% by volume of hydrogen.
- a substantially inert gas such as nitrogen, helium or argon and more than 2% by volume of hydrogen.
- a large variety of heating technologies may be used to make the pipe ends hot enough such that the metallurgical bond can be made.
- the heating techniques may involve electric, electromagnetic, induction, infrared, arcing and/or friction heating or combinations of these and/or other heating methods.
- the term forge welding is intended to encompass all techniques which involve circumferential heating of pipe ends and subsequent metallurgical bonding the heated pipe ends, including welding techniques that are generally known as fusion welding, friction welding, flash welding and/or butt welding.
- non explosive mixtures comprising about 95% by volume of a substantially insert gas, such as argon, - 5 - nitxogen and/or helium, and about 5% by volume of a reducing gas, such as hydrogen and/or carbon monoxide fox flash welding and induction butt welding.
- a substantially insert gas such as argon, - 5 - nitxogen and/or helium
- a reducing gas such as hydrogen and/or carbon monoxide fox flash welding and induction butt welding.
- Fig.l depicts a partially longitudinal sectional and partially side view of a slotted tubular at the diameter after installation
- Fig.2 depicts a cross-sectional view of the tubular of Fig.l after the tubular end is folded into a corrugated shape
- Fig.3 is a side view of the tubular shown in Fig. 2 showing the transition from the slotted mid section towards the corrugated end, which is subsequently forge welded to a corrugated end of an adjacent tubular;
- Fig...4 is an illustration of the steps required in an embodiment of a technique to ensure that the slots or perforations created in various expandable tubulars are filled with a refractory material to allow the pipe ends to be forge welded without the slots or perforations being welded together;
- Fig. 5 depicts a seal assembly for forge welding of a slotted or perforated expandable tubular in which internal and external sealing areas have been significantly extended beyond that used for non-slotted and non-perforated tubulars;
- Fig. 6 depicts a pair of expandable tubulars having intermeshing teethed ends that are joined by forge welding; - 6 -
- Fig. 7 depicts a pair of expandable " tubulars having in circumferential direction sinusoidal intex eshing shaped ends that are joined by forge welding;
- Fig. 8 depicts a pair of expandable tubulars having overlapping sinusoidal ends that are joined by forge welding.
- Expandable slotted tubulars as shown in Figures 1-8 may be used in oil ' nd gas wells to control e.g. sand production.
- the tubulars may wrapped with an assembly of screens with a specific mesh size to prevent sand from entering into the hole during production.
- tubulars with the screens wrapped around them are supplied to the well location in lengths of typically 10 m. It is known from US patent No. 5,924,745 to connect the overlapping ends of expandable tubular sections by slotted thread connections.
- No. 5,924,745 are designed in such a way that the expansion force ' required at the cone to expand the connection is similar to that of the slotted pipe itself. This is essential because it enables the cone to be pushed down the hole without the risk of buckling the un- expanded pipe section below the cone.
- the forge welding method according to the invention aims at replacing of the threaded connection known from US patent No. 5,924,745 by a welded connection to overcome the disadvantages of the threaded connections.
- the method according to invention may be used to forge weld the ends of a partially slotted tubular 1 as shown in Fig 1 to the ends of adjacent partially slotted expandable tubulars (not shown) .
- the unexpanding tubular 1 has a diameter D2 which is at least 10% smaller to than the diameter of the expanded tubular (not shown) after expansion in the hole.
- the end faces 2 of the tubular are machined as per the requirements for the welding process to be applied on the rig site.
- the middle section of the tubular 3 is provided with slots 4 leaving solid sections 5 of pipe at both ends of the tubular.
- Fig. 2 shows the solid, unslotted, end section 5 which is folded in such a way that the outer diameter of the section equals the ⁇ diameter Dl of the unexpanded tubular while running into the. hole.
- the middle section 3 is also reduced to the same diameter Dl by compressing the slots machined in the pipe body which is shown in Fig. 3. This implies that the middle section remains cylindrical.
- the tubular 3 is provided with an expandable sand-screen assembly (not shown) .
- the end sections of the joints are not slotted which facilitates the heating process; there is a continuous path for the current flow.
- the diameter ratio is governed by the percentage of the circumference of the tubular that is provided with slots.
- An alternative process and embodiment of the welded slotted tubular comprises a tubular with an initial diameter equal to that required for running the tubular into the hole. Both end sections of this solid tubular are expanded to the diameter of the tubular after - 9 - installation in the well. The middle s ⁇ xrtion " a d part of both expanded end sections ..axe .provided with slots . Then the expanded end sections (solid and slotted part) are folded to reduce their diameter again to that of the slotted part of the tubular.
- Figure 4 illustrates the steps required to fill the slots or perforations with ceramic slurry that sets inside the slots or perforation.
- the first step in the operation indicates a solid tubular 6 prepared for slotting or perforating. Slots or perforations 7 are then cut. In some variations of the technology slots and/or perforations are cut in a flat sheet which is then worked into tubulars. Both of these alternative methods may be used to produce slotted/perforated expandable tubulars. For forge welding it is sometimes advantageous to increase the. width of slots which intersect the free surface of the tube butt end for a distance of approximately 1 - 2mm from the butt end.
- a coffer (not shown) is positioned around the ends of the tubulars and the area is flooded with ceramic slurry 8. Vibration may be applied to ensure that the slurry completely fills the - 10 -
- Tt is necessary for the coffer to encompass an area of the tubular 6 extending from above the tip of the tubular to a region covering at least two rows of perforations or slots. Typically this would require a depth of coverage of approximately 100mm. Finally, excess ceramic is removed, leaving the slots or perforations 7 completely filled with ceramic filler 9.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a simple method to accomplish this.
- a sealing device 12 is positioned inside the upper and lower pipes 10, 16.
- the sealing device 12 comprises sealing elements 13 that are of a sufficient length to completely cover at least two rows of slots or perforations 11. This configuration ensures that the internal area at the ends of the pipes 10, 16 is sealed to allow gas flushing.
- an external sealing chamber is also required.
- This sealing chamber has extended sealing elements 14, which are designed to completely cover at least two rows of slots or perforations 11.
- Fig. 6 shows two expandable tubular 51,52 with complementary teethed end faces 53.
- FIG. 7 shows two expandable tubulars 64,65 with complementary non-planar end-faces 66 in this case of an in circumferential direction sinusoidal shape which is rotation symmetrical relative to the longitudional axis 67 of the tubulars 64,65.
- Welding of the tubular ends 64,65 together along the length of the contour of the non-planar end face 66 provides a total length of the weld which is larger than the total circumferential length of the pipes and thereby reduces the loading of the weld compared to that of the pi e body when the tubulars are radially expanded as illustrated by arrows 68.
- Fig. 8 shows two expandable tubulars 77 and 78 which are partly overlapping. Both tubulars 77 and 78 are provided with a non-planar sinusoidal end face 79,80 which is in contact with the other tubular 78, 77. Forge welding of the overlapping sections 81 of the tubulars 77,78 together yields a weld length which is larger than the length of the circumference of the tubulars and thereby reduces the loading of the weld compared to that of the tubular bodies.
- this configuration yields a gradual transfer of the loading from one tubular 77 to the other tubular 78 and supports the mitigation of stress concentrations in the overlapping zone 81 of the tubulars 77,78 when the tubulars 77,78 are radially expanded as illustrated by arrows 82.
